Hell yeah, we have to kill ACORN, because we don't want those peasants voting, do we? Only the rich should vote. Baby Jeebus wants it that way.
Hell, I'm one of the peasants. I qualified and was approved for an ACORN mortgage about 6 years ago. It's still a corrupt organization.
There is no such thing as an 'ACORN mortgage' and never was.

Who We Are
National non-profit ACORN Housing has been providing free housing counseling to low and moderate income homebuyers since 1987. We have opened HUD-certified, Fannie Mae-approved housing counseling offices across the US, helping over 50,000 families to achieve homeownership.
ACORN Housing provides one-on-one mortgage loan counseling, first-time homebuyer classes, and helps clients obtain affordable mortgages through our unique lending partnerships.
We look at your savings and credit history to see if you qualify for a mortgage. We can help you with credit problems and to create a downpayment savings plan.
When you qualify, we can help arrange a mortgage with lower interest rates, lower down payments and lower settlement costs than what banks usually offer.
